RE: scouting in snow
Sure do - I run the roads around my area as turkeys backlighted by snow stand out like a sore thumb! I do leave all calls at home - never use them during scouting - never.
But I see you are in Colorado while I am in Wisc. So roads in your area may not be that easily accessable.
However in Wisc - they are still flocked in good groups and we key on dairy farms and cattle feed lots as they are sources for food during winter. And is where we see birds.
I have also hunted spring Toms in the snow - wife hates me then as U swipe the white bed sheets for camo blinds.
